 This week we did some Wananga stuff. On Monday the teachers and the students were in the Hui, They were doing some discussions about what and what not to do in school, and miss Tafau was leaving as she was our teacher for TFM Wananga class I think she was promoted or something, but she still works at school, just not our teacher, However, Mr. Dains was the new guy that's gonna be our teacher and teach us about Wannga stuff.

Critical Literacy from week 1

Book: 

ANCIENT GREECE  


* What is the text about, How do we know? 

   Romans used to brush their teeth with urine. Ancient Romans used to use both human and animal urine as a mouthwash in order to whiten their teeth. The thing is, it actually works, it's just gross. Our urine contains ammonia, a compound of nitrogen and hydrogen, that is capable of acting as a cleansing agent.

* What do the images suggest?

   Greek Temples. The Temple of Ceres was built in the sixth-century b.c in the Doric style and known as the temple of Athena and later used as a Christian church. For hundreds of years, people visited the site of Paestum because it was hidden by swamps and undergrowth, which accounts for the remarkable survival of the buildings.
